 The Bishop of Rochester: Threat to Islam |
| Sorta proves his point, doesn't it? |
| So they want to kill him. |
Speaking to The Times, Dr Nazir-Ali, who is Britain's only Asian bishop, said: "The irony is that I had similar threats when I was a bishop in Pakistan, but I never thought I would have them here. My point in saying what I did was that Britain had lost its Christian vision, which would have provided the resources to offer hospitality to others."
This absence of a Christian vision had led to multiculturalism in Britain claimed the bishop. He added: "Everyone agrees that multiculturalism has had disastrous consequences, and that segregation and extremism have arisen from this."
Following his comment, the bishop says he has received overwhelming support. He said: "I have had 1,000 letters, and 95 per cent have been supportive. There is no point in being in denial. We have to face the consequences."
Speaking earlier this week, Dr Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, said Christian Muslim relations in Britain are currently in a "very good place".
